:: My 10km Journey. ::
It's been a long time that i haven't run for a long distance since after i move out from Bullion Park, i still remember when i'm still in Bullion Park, is either i run with Daryl or Cheryl at night for 4km jog, or i will just run myself with my own speed, my own time, the distance that i want to run.
Those days were great, you can just keep on running non-stop, no one will stop you, until one day, i run 18km non-stop, i push myself so damn hard because of 42km marathon because 1 want to finish the race within 5 hours.
But i didn't expected that i injure my right knee after the next day, and it's not funny at all, some more it's before my marathon.
But i still make it through the race, but after the race, i had never run more than 5km anymore.
Yesterday night i was thinking not to run because I'm too tired, but i don't know what makes me go and run that 10km, even though I'm tired.
While i start running, it feels like shit because I'm really tired, but after 1km, i don't feel like shit, so i just continue running, run and run and run, my mind was telling me to finish that 10km.
Until 6km, my stitch is getting painful, but i still force myself to run and control my breathing.
7km, i have to let myself walk, because my right knee told me to stop running, and i also learn a lesson, "never try to push over to your limit"
3km more to finish, so i just push myself all the way! 57 mins 7 sec. It feels great that i really finish 10km within 1 hour, and i think i had found something for myself to challenge.
Since cycling is so painful, maybe i should try running long distance again, plus i learn how to control my limit.
Next challenge, 20km.
Maybe next year, either Sundown or Standard Chartered Marathon, i told myself before that i will never run 42km again, but who knows i have change my mind, instead of going for Triathlon since i don't have a bike (Have to invest a lot of money on Bike, and Swimming is a torturing to me.) Try something that you are confortable with.
We will see how it goes, oh well, next week start school, that will be a new day for me. Time to work hard again.
